Flow rate data points from FTI .sav flowmeter calibration files can be uploaded directly to either system. No complex calibration information needs to be typed into a PC first. The software also makes it easy to arrange units of measure and header information when programming a flow measurement system. Program may be downloaded free from the Flow Technology Web site until Apr. 1, 2006. Price after the introductory period will be $100.

LinearLink works with all types of turbine flowmeters and is based on measuring the time between turbine rotor blades. It can output “real-time” corrected K-factor flow data in 10 ms with an accuracy of 0.1% of reading over the full repeatable range of the flowmeter. LinearLink TCI is an electronics platform for flowmeter linearization and viscosity/density correction. It reportedly improves flowmeter accuracy even under extreme temperature conditions and is intended for demanding requirements such as are found in aerospace, automotive, and process manufacturing applications.
